Equity Derivatives trading (S&T) to Hedge fund?

Hey guys, From what I have seen on the site, FICC traders can typically exit to macro funds after some experiences. What about equity derivatives traders? Do they generally get into hedge funds as a trader/investor/analyst? If so, what is the level of difficulty compared to FICC? Thanks for your opinions!
